GREEN PUBS have undergone a change of name but are still open.
BLUE PUBS are open.
NAG'S HEAD, The; 261 Derby Road, Birdholme.
Formerly "The Bugle Horn"
NAG'S HEAD, The; Newbold Road, Newbold Village.
NAG'S HEAD INN, The; Chesterfield Road, Staveley.
NEPTUNE, The; 46 St Helen's Street, Chesterfield.
A pleasant “local” pub not that far off the beaten track.
NEW INN, The; 2 Meakin Street, Hasland.
Formerly "The Prospect Inn"
NEW INN, The; 236 Station Road, Brimington.
Previously The Great Central Hotel; currently The Mill
NEW INN, The; Brickyard Row, Whittington Moor.
Used to stand north of the junction of St John's Road and Sheffield Road. Now disappeared under the Dronfield bypass.
NEW INN, The; Chatsworth Road, Brampton.
Became "Sweeney's" for a while but reverted to its old name in 2003.
NEW INN, The; St Helen's Street, Chesterfield.
1881 census lists a New Inn on Sheffield Rd, near East View. The same???
NEW INN, The; Netherthorpe, Staveley.
The 1895 Bulmer's Guide has two New Inns in Staveley; this one and the one below.
NEW INN, The; Staveley.
NEW INN, The; Calow Lane, Hasland.
NEW INN, The; 229 Mansfield Road, Hasland.
NEWBRIDGE INN, The; Newbridge Lane, Foxley Oaks.
On that part of Newbridge Lane that is accessed from Whittington Hill, and close to the site of the Foxley Oaks Colliery. Closed around the time of the First World War. Check out the private house at the end of Newbridge Lane, on the south side of the road. It has "WS 1856" chiselled into the lintel above the highest window on the gable. Is this our pub?
NEW PHEASANT, The; Brampton.
There were two “Pheasant” pubs on the Brampton Mile, which became known to locals as “Top Pheasant” and “Bottom Pheasant.” One of them – “Bottom Pheasant,” I suspect – was close to (and may have become part of) The Terminus. That would leave this one as “Top Pheasant.” It went to the wall in the 1960s.
NEW SQUARE INN; New Square, Chesterfield.
Now "The Market"
NICKELS CAFE & BAR; Knifesmithgate, Chesterfield.
Previously The King's Head; also Boma's Bar & Barker's Bar. While its first two post-King's Head apparitions were unsatisfactory, in a tawdry, flourescent sort of way, this one is hugely better. The premises have been extended into a new building on a yard at the rear, and the owners have made a good effort at improving the general feel of the place. It no longer has the depressing "Get them young, get them drunk, get them out" feel of many other places in town and appears to cater for all ages and categories of drinker.
NORMA JEAN'S; Holywell Street, Chesterfield.
Once we named our bars after national heroes - now we name them after neurotic, pill-popping, adulterous dead movie stars. Converted from the "La Sardagnola" restaurant, NJ's was a place with absolutely no merit whatsoever. Relaunched as "Bar Rocket" around 2001, a name at least inspired (one hopes) by the Stephenson connection to the town. Became "Lyrix" in 2006.

The New Inn at Whittington Moor was my 'local' for the only good reason that their was a regular after time 'lock-in' for at least an hour or two and a regular service to the Chip shop.
Nan and Len Badger ran the pub, Len was my shift foreman, and after a hard late shift at Robinson's Portland Works, we nipped there for a few pints after time.
Great memories of a long lost pub.
